五分钟英语演讲稿五篇
五分钟英语演讲稿篇一
I was seventeen, almost a senior in high school. I was riding my bike to school. I had taken a special route to pick up a gift, but that day, the road less traveled by led to disaster. Crossing a road, a drunk driver ran a red light, slammed into me, and shattered my left knee.
